Quilt brag #2

Today's quilt is nowhere near as beautiful as the one I shared yesterday, but it's still made of feedsacks and was cheap, so I think it's pretty cool.

 It's not fancy--a simple nine-patch quilt and the stitching and piecing is kinda rough. The lack of precision says to me that it was made by either a child or someone who didn't sew much.

Heck, that's probably what my first attempt at a quilt would look like.

 It's definitely made of feedsacks. You can still see the blue writing on a few of the white rectangle pieces (look in the center above)

And here's a square that still has a part of the paper label attached

And on several squares (like the green one above) you can see the holes where the feedsack was originally stitched up the side.

There are some pieced squares that appear to be intended for a bow tie quilt

And there are plenty of yummy old prints like these

And these

And these cuties.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with this quilt top. It's going to need a good cleaning because there are a lot of dirty spots and even some masking tape residue. I don't think it's in good enough condition that I want to pay to have it finished (doing it myself is totally out of the question) but it's kind of useless on it's own. If I can get it clean, I'm actually thinking that I could take apart the quilt top and make some pretty darn cute pillows with the squares.

If you found this quilt top, what would you do with it?
